 Trey Benson has knee surgery, out 4-6 weeks
Placed on IR
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Oct 1, 1:13 pm
|  | Injury update: Cardinals RB Trey Benson, who is being placed on injured reserve due to a knee injury, underwent arthroscopic surgery on his meniscus and now is expected to be sidelined 4-to-6 weeks, per source. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: Well, that escalated quickly. With Benson on the shelf, the Cardinals will likely turn to Michael Carter and Emari Demercado as their top two running backs. It's possible they could slide Carter into the early-down role and keep Demercado in the third-down, two-minute, pass-catching role. Both backs are waiver wire options this week but it's difficult to project either as more than a low-end RB2. Upcoming schedule for ARI is: TEN, @IND, GB, bye.

Knee injury
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Oct 1, 11:02 am
| | Another RB whose status for Sunday is now in question: Cardinals RB Trey Benson. Near the end of last Thursday’s game vs. the Seahawks, Benson banged his knee. It is not thought to be serious, but his status for Sunday now is in question. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: The Cardinals signed Michael Carter to the 53-man roster and D'Ernest Johnson to the practice squad -- a good sign that Benson is likely to miss this week. Emari Demercado played mostly third downs last week along with entire final Arizona drive against Seattle. Some kind of committee between Demercado and Carter is likely what we'll see this week against the Titans. We'll likely get a better idea on the workload split later in the week.
